Aaftab Poonawala is accused of strangling his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar to death.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hours, after a Delhi court framed charges against Aaftab Poonawala, Shraddha Walkar’s father Tuesday, demanded that the trial starts at the earliest and hoped that the accused be hanged to death.<\/p>\n
Poonawala is accused of strangling his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar to death and chopping her body into pieces.<\/p>\n
Poonawala, however, denied the charges and demanded a trial. The matter has been posted for further proceedings on June 1.<\/p>\n
“We feel that he should be hanged to death. I will be requesting the court to start the trial as soon as possible and June 1 might be a little late. We welcome the court’s decision,” Vikas Walkar told PTI.<\/p>\n
He also said that on May 17, he will hold a one-day protest in Mumbai to demand a speedy trial in the case.<\/p>\n
“We want our voice to be heard in Delhi,” he added.<\/p>\n
Additional Sessions Judge Manisha Khurana Kakkar said prima facie a case for offences under Indian Penal Code (IPC) Sections 302 (murder) and 201 (causing disappearance of evidence of offence) was made out against the accused.<\/p>\n
The Delhi Police had filed a 6,629-page charge sheet in the case on January 24.<\/p>\n
Walkar was allegedly strangled by Poonawala on May 18 last year, following which he sawed her body into pieces and kept them in a fridge for almost three weeks at his residence in South Delhi’s Mehrauli.<\/p>\n
He scattered the pieces at different places in the national capital to avoid getting caught.<\/p>\n
